Mrs Frugal Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Shona has asked me to delete her from the memberlist which I've done with a very heavy heart. She's been great fun as a member and a moderator and I will miss her posts. I hope that whoever was victimising her is very proud of herself .

Snowy Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Shona will leave a big hole in the forum - her posts have given me some of the best laughs I've had. Someone ought to be ashamed of themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feemcg Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Thats shocking news.........but couldn't the 'bully' have been banned instead?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joojoo Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Thats shocking news.........but couldn't the 'bully' have been banned instead?? I agree with Fee. Why should Shona have to remove herself? I heard about this a few days ago and have to say I was absolutely disgusted. I had always thought that this forum was such a happy and lovely place to be. "Ooops, word censored!"ody should have the right to make someone else feel that bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I'm totally shocked by this . I've obviously been naive in thinking that everybody on this forum is nice, kind and supportive . If possible, please pass on my good wishes to Chookiehen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hillfamily Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 (edited) That's so sad and extremely shocking ........Shona will be greatly missed I think it's terrible that a forum member did whatever they did and upset Shona so very badly edited for typo Edited January 29, 2009 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minnie the Moocher Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Me too, completely missed this and am very shocked. Get rid of the bully please; this simply isn't fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs Frugal Posted January 29, 2009 Author Share Posted January 29, 2009 Abuse of the forum PM facility is against the forum guidelines and would result in instant removal. I would remove whoever was doing this if Shona would tell me who it was. Unfortunately she won't so I'm powerless . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clootie Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I don't like this sort of thing at all - makes me feel very uncomfortable. I'm sorry you've gone Chookie. Maybe after a while, you'll decide to come back. I hope so. x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I can only echo what has been said above. This kinda thing is not on and I hope it gets sorted out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
susanbb Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I too am absolutely devastated to hear this. I also thought that this was a really friendly forum. Please send my regards to Shona and wish her all the best. Hopefully it can get sorted out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickvic Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 This is really shocking, I can only add my sentiments to what has been said. I never would have guessed anything was going on. Shona will be missed, please pass on my best wishes to Shona. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angels4 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 As I told Shona when she mentioned this on facebook "I'm shocked" I like the rest of you have always thought of this forum as a friendly supportive place. By not disclosing the abuser and having them banned from the forum, Shona has shown she is a much bigger person. Sorry to see you leave Shona, you will be missed.

Guest Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I am totally stunned by this. What on earth was going on and why can't something more be done about it? ChookieHen has been here a long time, longer than I have, and we have shared some highs and lows of her life. I can't for the life of me think of any reason why she would be bullied nor can I understand why she would choose to lose her friends here rather than disclose the offender. Please pass my very best wishes on Kate and tell her I hope she feels better soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Can some sort of investigation not be instigated? Surely the boffins would be able to see some sort of log of who was sending PM's, even if they didn't want to delve into the content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
